krm_definitions #
The Definition (Original Glosses)
in the Myōgishō is composed not only of Japanese Native Readings (*wakun*)
but also other elements such as Notes on Character Form
, Phonetic Glosses
, and Semantic Glosses in Chinese
.
The KRM_definitions.tsv
file, which was previously released, provided these elements of the Definition (Original Glosses)
categorized by type and ordered by their appearance. This dataset was created to facilitate collation and source investigation.
Following the specification changes implemented in March 2025, the data and functionalities previously found in KRM_definitions.tsv
have been integrated into the krm_notes
file (which contains data for Compiler's Remarks
and detailed analyses of these original gloss elements). Consequently, a separate detailed explanation for krm_definitions
is omitted here.
